Heat and temperature
An introduction to
thermodynamics
Overview
Thermodynamics
• Study of macroscopic
processes involving
heat, mechanical and
other forms of energy
• Applications - systems
with energy inputs and
outputs: heat engines,
heat pumps,
refrigerators, …
• Based upon but not
concerned with
microscopic details
Approach here
• Discuss underlying
microscopic processes
• Relate microscopic and
macroscopic views
• Study the laws of
thermodynamics
Kinetic molecular theory
• Collective hypotheses about the particulate
nature of matter and the surrounding space
• Greeks - earliest written ideas on atoms
• Current view
– Matter comprised of microscopic particles - atoms
– Atoms combine to form molecules
– Many macroscopic phenomena can be traced to
interactions on this level
Molecules
• Chemical elements defined by each unique
type of atom
• Compounds - pure
substances made up of
two or more atoms
chemically bonded
• Molecules
– Smallest unit retaining
the properties of a
compound
– Shorthand here:
“molecules” can stand for
either atoms (monatomic
molecules) or molecules
Molecular interactions
• Usually attractive, causing
materials to cling together
• Cohesion - attractive forces
between like molecules
• Adhesion
– Attractive forces between
unlike molecules
– Water wetting skin
– Glue mechanism;
adhesives
• Interactions can also be
repulsive
– Water beading on wax
Phases of matter - solids
• Definite shape and
volume
• Rigid 3-D structure
• Atoms/molecules
bonded in place
• Allowed motions
restricted to
vibration in place
only
Phases of matter - liquids
• Definite volume,
indefinite shape
• Only weak cohesive
bonds between
component molecules
• Constituent molecules
mostly in contact
• Allowed motions
– Vibration
– Rotation
– Limited translation
Phases of matter - gases
• Indefinite volume and shape
• Molecules mostly not in contact
• Allowed motions
– Vibration and rotation (molecules with more than one
atom)
– Translation on random, mostly free paths
Molecular motions
• Characterized by average
kinetic energy in a large
sample
• Temperature
– Measure of average
kinetic energy on the
molecules making up a
substance
– Proportional to average
KE
• Evidence
– Gases diffuse quicker at
higher temperatures
– Expansion/contraction
with
increasing/decreasing
temperature
Temperature
• A measure of the
internal energy of an
object
• Thermometers
– Used to measure
temperature
– Rely on thermometric
properties
– Example: bimetallic
strips and thermostats
Temperature scales
• Defined w.r.t various
reference points
• Fahrenheit
• Celsius
• Kelvin
• Conversion formulas
– Fahrenheit to Celsius
– Celsius to Fahrenheit
– Celsius to Kelvin
Heat
• A form of energy transfer
between two objects
• External energy - total
potential and kinetic
energy of an every-day
sized object
• Internal energy - total
kinetic energy of the
molecules in that object
• External can be
transferred to internal,
resulting in a temperature
increase
Heat versus temperature
Temperature
• A measure of hotness
or coldness of an object
• Based on average
molecular kinetic
energy
Heat
• Based on total internal
energy of molecules
• Doubling amount at
same temperature
doubles heat
Heat
Definition
• A measure of the
internal energy that has
been absorbed or
transferred from
another object
• Two related processes
– “Heating” = increasing
internal energy
– “Cooling” = decreasing
internal energy
Heating methods
1. Temperature
difference: Energy
always moves from
higher temperature
regions to lower
temperature regions
2. Energy-form
conversion: Transfer
of heat by doing work
Measures of heat
Metric units
English system
• calorie (cal) - energy
needed to raise
temperature of 1 g of
water 1 degree Celsius
• kilocalorie (kcal,
Calorie, Cal) - energy
needed to raise
temperature of 1 kg of
water 1 degree Celsius
• British thermal unit
(BTU) - energy needed
to raise the temperature
of 1 lb of water 1
degree Fahrenheit
Mechanical
equivalence
• 4.184 J = 1 cal
Specific heat
Variables involved in heating
• Temperature change
• Mass
• Type of material
– Different materials
require different amounts
of heat to produce the
same temperature
change
– Measure = specific heat
Summarized in one equation
Heat flow
Three mechanisms for heat transfer due to a
temperature difference
1. Conduction
2. Convection
3. Radiation
Natural flow is always from higher temperature
regions to cooler ones
Conduction
• Heat flowing through
matter
• Mechanism
– Hotter atoms collide
with cooler ones,
transferring some of
their energy
– Direct physical contact
required; cannot occur
in a vacuum
• Poor conductors =
insulators (Styrofoam,
wool, air…)
Sample conductivities

Relative conductivity
Silver

Iron

Water

Styrofoam
1.0x10-4
Air
6.0x10-5
Vacuum
0
Convection
• Energy transfer
through the bulk
motion of hot
material
• Examples
– Space heater
– Gas furnace (forced)
• Natural convection
mechanism - “hot air
rises”
Radiation
• Radiant energy - energy associated with
electromagnetic waves
• Can operate through a vacuum
• All objects emit and absorb radiation
• Temperature determines
– Emission rate
– Intensity of emitted light
– Type of radiation given off
• Temperature determined by balance between rates
of emission and absorption
– Example: Global warming
Energy, heat, and molecular
theory
Two responses of matter
to heat
1. Temperature increase
within a given phase
–
–
Heat goes mostly into
internal kinetic energy
Specific heat
2. Phase change at
constant temperature

–
Related to changes in
internal potential energy

Evaporation and condensation
• Individual molecules
can change phase any
time
• Evaporation:
– Energy required to
overcome phase
cohesion
– Higher energy molecules
near the surface can then
escape
• Condensation:
– Gas molecules near the
surface lose KE to liquid
molecules and merge
Thermodynamics
• The study of heat and
its relationship to
mechanical and other
forms of energy
• Thermodynamic
analysis includes
– System
– Surroundings (everything
else)
– Internal energy (the total
internal potential and
kinetic energy of the
object in question)
• Energy conversion
– Friction - converts
mechanical energy into
heat
– Heat engines - devices
converting heat into
mechanical energy
– Other applications: heat
pumps, refrigerators,
organisms, hurricanes,
stars, black holes, …,
virtually any system with
energy inputs and
outputs
The first law of
thermodynamics
• Conservation of energy
• Components
– Internal energy
– Heat
– Work
• Stated in terms of
changes in internal
energy
• Application: heat
engines
The second law of
thermodynamics
Equivalent statements:
Two reference scales:
•
1. An object’s external
energy
•
•
No process can solely
convert a quantity of
heat to work (heat
engines)
Heat never flows
spontaneously from a
cold object to a hot
object (refrigerators)
Natural processes
tend toward a greater
state of disorder
(entropy)
–
–
Energy of global,
coherent motion
Associated with work
2. An object’s internal
energy
–
–
Energy of
microscopic, chaotic,
incoherent motion
Associated with heat
Second law, first statement
Conservation of energy,
heat engine
• Input energy = output
energy
Efficiency of a heat engine
• Work done per unit input
energy
Second law:
• Efficiency cannot equal 1
• Some energy always
degraded
Second law, second
statement
Conservation of
energy, heat pump
• Energy arriving in high
temperature region =
energy from low
temperature region + work
needed to move it
• Upgrading of energy by
heat pump accompanied
by greater degradation of
energy elsewhere
Second law, third statement
• Real process =
irreversible process
• Measure of disorder =
entropy
Second law, in these terms:
• The total entropy of the
Universe continually
increases
• Natural processes
degrade coherent, useful
energy
– Available energy of the
Universe diminishing
– Eventually: “heat
death” of the Universe
• Direction of natural
processes
– Toward more disorder
– Spilled milk will never
“unspill” back into the
glass!
